Farm, Garden and Household,
Ilow to Keep Kgffl.
The follftwinff is an extrnct from an
article on this subject iu the London,
(Enrfinnd) Farmer :
" For storing rgera ft very pood plnn
5a to havo a large board pierced with
holes in regular rows. Many breeders
keep them in bran ; and this latter
method is, perhaps, best for those
meant only to bo eaten, but for Betting
kens the pierced board has many obvi
ous conveniences. . They should be al
ways kept with the large end downward.
This direction being exactly contrary to
that usually given, we should state that
our attention was first called specially
to the subject by a most intelligent
lady, who advocated this plan, alleging
os the probable reason of its superiority,
keeping epgs on the small end appears
to mo to cause the air-bubble to spread,
detaching it from the shell, or rather
from its membranous lining, and after
being so kept for a fortnight the air
bubble will be found to be much spread,
nnd the eggs to have lost much vi tality,
though still very good for eating.' She
then described her success the other
way, adding, ' Owing to this method of
storing, such a thing as a stale egg has
never been known in my house ; and as
regards success in hatching, for several
seasons, when I was able to attend to
my poultry myself, of many broods set
every egg produced a chick.' We were
by no mentis baity in adopting or rec
ommending this plan, but after careful
observation and comparison for two
seasons, have proved indisputably, that
both for eating or setting, eggs do keep
much bettor the largo end down. There
is, after a week, a marked difference in
eggs kept in the two positions as re
gards the spreading of the air-bubble
which is well known to affect both the
freshliness for eating, and vitality
for setting, of stored eggs and after
three weeks the difference can be dis
cerned even by the taste alone. It will,
of course, mattpr littlo which mode is
adopted, provided the eggs are used
for either purpose wir.hina short time ;
but the longer kept, the more the dif
ference from the two positions increases,
and while eggs stored away with the
small end down cannot be depended
upon nf ter a fortnight to produce more
than a proportion of chickens, those
kept in the way we now advocate will
keep perfectly, good for hatching a
month, or even more."
Filed Potatoes.
The name fried potatoes, of course,
means potatoes that are fried, bnt how
di Cerent the articlo in different places.
The elements, so to speak, potatoes
and lard, are the same everywhere, but
in one case we get a disagreeable fat
soaken slice, and at another a real deli
cacy. Certain hotels and restaurants
make a specialty of fried potatoes, and
every one has heard of Moon's Saratoga
potatoes that are eaten as a luxury as
one would eat pop-corn or bon-bons.
The Saratoga and other choice fried
potatoes are apparently without grease,
with a crisp surface, a mealy interior,
and altogether delicious. " Why can't
we have such ?" asks paterfamilias when
he returned from a visit to the city or a
watering-place. The good wife might
answer that he could have just such if
he would go to the trouble and expense.
The first essential is to have all the po
tatoes sliced of an even thickness.
This is thus accomplished: A board
has a knife fastened in it after the man
ner of a sourkrout-cutter, or dried
beef slicer, the edge of the knife placed
far enough above the level of the board
to give the required thickness. The
peeled potatoes are put in a frame which
elides back and forth over the knife,
and this has a follower to keep the po
tatoes in place. By means of this a
large quantity can be rapidly sliced,
niul with tlie greatest uniformity.
The next requisite is a kettle with an
abundauce of very hot lard, and the
next a wire cage, shaped like a common
dipper. The sliced potatoes are placed
in the cage, plumped into the hot lard,
and at the proper instant, which can
only be learned by experience, they, by
means of the cage, are all withdrawn at
once. A few shakes free them from all
adhering fat, and if the operation is
properly done the potatoes may be
served on a napkin without greasing it.
All these are necessary in order to have
fried pototoes in perfection. We have
had satisfactory results from carefully
slicing the potatoes with a knife and
letting them drop into ice-water ; ta
king out a handful at a time, putting
them into a towel, and giving it a few
jerks to dry them, and then popping
them into fat, from which as soon as
done they were removed by a large
skimmer. Theu another portion was
done. The use of ice-water tends greatly
to preserve the crispness of the potatoes.
Strawberry throwing
The profits of the strawberry trade
on Long Island may be judged of by
the following figures, showing theopera
tions of one firm near Bayport. They
began in 18C9, with two acres planted,
from whieh they sold -1,200 quarts, net
ting 504. In 1870, from three acres,
they sold $5,000 quarts, netting SG50 ;
in 1871, from Bix acres, they sold 22,000
quarts, netting 2,110 ; in 1872, from
twelve acres, they sold 20.000 quarts.
netting S2.CG0; in 1873, from twelve
acres, they sold, notwithstanding the
dro season, 20,000 quarts, netting
fe'J, most of tlie crop being grown
on live acres of new ground, which
stood the drouth better than the old
ground. The btrries were sent to New
York and thence shipped to Boston and
other Eastern markets. (JouIU they
have sent them direct their retnrns
would have been at least $4,000. Their
estimate of the cost and returns of an
acre of strawberries for two years,
counting upon two-thirds ol a crop, is
as follows : Plants and manure, each
510 ; setting out, S10 cultivation, 30;
mulching, 20 : total cost, 8140. Yield
first year. 2,500 quarts, at twelve cents,
8300 ; seoond year, 1,000 quarts, $120 ;
total, 120 ; net profit, g272.
A Stop.i. A droll incident is related
concerning Tad Lincoln, which occur
red when he was a lad of nine or ten
vearR. One member of the Cabinet of
Mr. Lincoln was strongly disliked by
Tad. When Lincoln was ill with tho
varioloid the offensive Secretary sent
his card in and asked for an interview.
Tad was present and heard his father
decline the request, sending tho mes
sage that ho was ill. "Papa." said Tad,
protesting, ''no, no, let him come in and
catch it.

A Little Historical Sketch.
Up to August, of 1857, that proved
so fatal to all the business interests of
the country, says a commercial review,
commercial affairs have been pursuing
the even tenor of their wy on the high
road of prosperity. Everything pointed
to a still more prosperous future. The
mania for building railroads had appar
ently been nipped, if not in the bud, at
least before it had extended too greatly
tho country's credit, and, although
thcro were several hundred roilli'.ns o:
foreign capital in use, in case of its be
ing recalled the home market could
register the bonds which represented it
at half the par cast. Tho wisest Solo
mons of banking saw no indications of
tho coming storm in tho commercial
skies. When, on the 8th of August,
the loans reached the unprecedented
height of 8122,000,000, even then a re
duction of $10,000,000 or 812,000,000
during the autumn months without in
jury to commerce was declared possi
ble, and in pursuance of this declaration
the banks began to contract their loans.
Never was an act followed by more fear
ful consequences. The prices of secu
rities at the Stock Board immediately
fell. The failure of a heavy produce
house, although accounted for by the
depression of that particular interest in
the market, and a report of a defalca
tion in a leading railway company
caused a suspicion of a coming crisis to
taint the public security, but failed to
seriously affect the general confidence.
On tho 24th of the month the . news of
the suspension of the Ohio Life In
surance and Trust Company came like
thunder from a clear sky. The financial
circle vibrated to its centre ; banking
officers, panic stricken by tho sudden
ness of the blow, at once lost their
heads. Tho days of '37 seemed once
more upon them, and financial chaos
was come again. Stocks and commer
cial paper were at once sacrificed at
ruineus rates, other failures were an
nounced, and rumors exaggerated each
calamity.
The Clearing-house report for August
29 the first after the suspension of the
Trust Company showed a reduction of
84,000,000 in the banks loans for the
previous week. A defalcation was an
nounced on the same day of 870,000 in
ono of the associated banks, and so
great was the general mistrust that oth
er institutions immediately became sus
pected of similar dishonesty, rue most
substantial securities in the market sold
for next to nothing at public sale, and
while the regular discounts of bills by
tlie banks had been nearly suspended,
Btreet rates for money on the most lis
questioned securities rose' to what was
up to that time unheard of there, 4 and
5 per cent, a month, and money could
not be had at any rate on ordinary prom
issory notes and bills of exchange.
Commercial house after commercial
house, bank after bank succumbed to
the panic. Tlie panic extended through
the entire country. The failure of the
Bank of Pennsylvania, in Philadelphia,
was followed by that of tho other banks
of that city, and by those of Baltimore
and of the (southern Atlantic States gen
erally. The panic was no respecter of
pt-rsons. Merchants, bankers, money
ed corporations, and manufacturing
companies were swept down without
distinction. Commercial business was
everywhere suspended, the purchase
and transportation of puoduce entirely
ceased. And the climax only was
reached when, on the 14th of October,
the bank suspensions of New York and
New England took place. For this al
most universal suspension the banks
could not claim the want of faith among
the depositors to be the cause. Despite
tlie distrust that early began to effect
the entire country the depositors stood
well by their guns, and not till the 2Gth
of September did they begin to be
alarmed. For the five successive week?
preceding they withdrew less fr m the
banks each week than the banks with
drew from them by the depression of
loans.
Although the panio started on the
25th of August, caused by tho contrac
tion of loans, and was at once carried
by the telegraph with the speed of light
to all parts of tho country, no marked
withdrawal of deposits by individual
depositors took place anywhere till
more than an entire month later. Up
to that time the depositors presented a
steady front, apparently determined to
sustain the public credit if everything
else failed. But when October came in
resistance seemed at once to cease to be
a virtue, and on the 3d of that month a
marked change came over the spirit of
depositors. Over four millions of de
posits were withdrawn in the seven days
following, and over fourteen millions in
the next twenty. The 14th of October
was the date of the banks' suspension.
On the day following withdrawals
ceased and restoration bean. Ono of
the causes alleged by the banks them
selves for their suspension was the sud
den withdrawal of country balances,
and for this the telegraph was re
sponsible. It not only took tho news
to tho country banks of tho collapse of
credit in the city, but brought back
their orders demanding their deposits
in specie. Tlie Clearing-houso, too,
was alleged to aid in increasing the gen
eral collapse. Its daily settlements in
coin forced the smaller banks into con
tracting their loans, into sacrifices of
property, and finally into bankruptcy.
Defuult at the Clearing-house became
the Banquo's ghost that appeared at the
bank board of all the smaller institu
tions. Tho most universally accepted
cause for the panio of 1857 is tho vio
lent contraction of bank loans imme
diately after the 21th of August. And
this was entirely the action of tho bank3
and they had only themselves to blame.
It was, tao, tho expansion of banks pre
vious to the panio that laid the founda
tion for the memorable commercial
crisis of 1857.
Handling Fire-Arras.
Tho American Sportsman is trying
hard to teach people how to handle
gm;s. It gives four rule3. , Tho sub
stance of the first three rules is never
handle a gun unless you know how ; al
ways handle a gun as if it were loaded ;
always carry a gun at half-cock. The
fourth rule wo give entire. " If you
know of no other way of ascertaining
whether a gun is loaded or not than by
Eutting the muzzle to your mouth and
lowing, or if you feel inclined to draw
the cap, retire to a safe distance and at
once blow out your brains if you have
any before you kill or maim other
people by your stupidity and careless
ness. "
Advertising.
The man who . advertises, says the
New York Reporter, shows not only a
business talent above his neighbors,
but he may at once be reckoned among
the independent, generous and publio
spirited of the community. He who
hides his light under a bushel when
such advantages as those at present af
forded are so freely offered him does
not deserve to succeed,
Tho Money In Advertising.
Ttis'jme, snys tho Keu)spaper Re
porter, all business men should under
stand that, with hero and there a spe
cial exception, tho newspaper is par
excellence tho only medium for adver
tising that is worth their serious atten
tion. Tho newspaper is a thing of life,
a visible fact, sure of its circulation,
certain to bo read.. It constantly re
news its youth j daily or weekly it ap
pears afresh, containing many old faces,
making themselves constantly more and
more familiar, but holding also fresh
f".cts, tho latest news, the last wonder :
even in its gossip, it gives the matter of
its time and tolls what is alive and mov
ing, up to tho very date it bears, while
its advertising columns show what is
being done in commercial circles and
lay before its readers a concise sum
mary of those now ideas through which
money is made by their fellows. As
coropared with all other advertising
methods its charges are reasonable, and
its promises modest, and while tho busi
ness man is supporting it, he is, more
over, gaining from it in more ways than
he may see at first sight. .
How is it' on the other hand with the
" Hotel Albums," "Stranger's Guides,"
and such like volumes introduced to
the merchant by the. supple .young so
licitor, as " the greatest mejum of the
age," or "the grandest advertising
scheme ever projected ?" It is true
that tho merchant is premised a " cir
culation of from five to ten thousand
and a copy gratia to every hotel." But
is tho promise kept ? are ono thousand
copies printed ? five hundred ? one
hundred ? The advertiser has no means
of knowing. It is too often the case
that such schemes are advertising traps
which the merchant blindly enters. In
the newspaper every facility is offered
him- in ascertaining the strength and
probable value of his investment, while,
at the time, tho newspaper must send
its issue to its various subscribers wno
pay for it and are bound to read it.
But supposing the volumes referred to
are to be found in all tho hotels ; who
reads them ? You see hundreds of peo
ple in hotel parlors with their news
paper, but how many look over the old,
dilipidated, margin-scribbled " Guide
to Strangers ?" The moment such a
work is published it becomes old. The
matter and tho pictures are already
obsolete before the last advertiser pays
in. Have these the influence of the
family newspaper, chiefest of house
hold gods ? Probably not. The " Hotel
Album," if its publisher's promises are
kept, is sent to divers hotels. Suppose
for a moment that strangers read them,
of what advantage is it as compared
with the paper which strikes the very
heart-centre of those from whom the
merchant expects his trade. And, last
of all, tho " Album" gives him but ono
insertion. One insertion for perhaps a
hundred dollars. The same amount
would make the merchant's name a
household word iu the commitnity from
which he draws his best custom cus
tom he can look after among people he
knows something about.
The question then arises, " Why do
merchants waste money in this kind of
advertising?" Perhaps the merchants
could best tell us, if they would.- N. V.

Tlie Jewish Xew Year.
The year 5,634 of the Jewish calendar
commenced sept, ziid, and extends
until Sept. 11. 1874. As with air the
numerous feasts and fasts to be found
in the Hebrew almanac, the celebiation
of the New Year commenced on the
preceding evening, that is, the evening
of the 21st.
Of all the festivals -of the Israelites,
none is so universally honored and so
strictly celebrated as the festival of the
New Year. The synagogues are crowd
ed to their utmost capacity, and tho
services are of the most impressive and
solemn nature. The orthodox Jews ob
serve with equal solemnity and devo
tion the first and second days of tho
New Year, wlr.le that portion of the
Jewish community known as reformers,
content themselves with celebrating the
first day only as a holiday, and have
also made great changes in the congre
gational services.
Following slowly upon the festival of
the New Year is the fast of " Yom Kip
pur," or day of atonement, which occurs
ou Wednesday, the 1st of October. The
days intervening between Bosh Hash
annah (New Year) and Yom Kippur are
known as the " Days of Penitence,"and
are devoted by pious Israelites to pre
paration for the solemn fast of atone
ment, and are spent chiefly in devotion
and prayer for the remission of sins,
and for pardon for past offences. Dur-
ing these days, denominated " Yimi
Teshuvo," the orthodox places of wor
ship are open to the pious worshipers
early and late, and the services are of a
peculiar nature set apart for this solemn
season oi tne year, rue religious revi
val usual during tho penitential days
culminate in the solemn fast of the
atonement, which in turn is quickly
followed by the feast of tabernacles, a
season of joy and gladness, which com
mences on the 6th of October aud con
tinues until the 14th, and' is a sort of
harvest feast.
Fooled the Gamblers.
A short time ago it was a frequent oc
currence for an impromptu game of faro
to be plnyed upon certain Hudson river
boats, during their trips up and down
the river. The game was organized by
a set of sharpers who traveled upon the
boat, and a party being collected in the
forward cabin the game would be pro
posed, and tho man who could show the
most money was allowed to be banker
and dealer. Tho gamblers never
banked themselves, as they furnished
the cards, which had been " bored,"
and they generally could bet with safety
upon the "call." The dealer one day
was a simple looking man, who shuffled
tho cards eo awkwardly that every one
present could see that the king was im
mediately under the top card when he
put them in tho box. Immediately
every gambler " coppered " the king
with his entire pile. The dealer looked
astonished, but said nothing, and slid
out tho top card which exposed tho
king, which in turn was slid out, and
behold 1 beneath that was another king,
making a " split" as it is termed. Cool
ly raking in naif the money upon tho
board, he arose and left the cabin. It
was soon discovered that he was a noted
sharper himself, instead of being tho
simpleton he had passed himself off for
while serving the purpose he had in
hand, '
Flowers. There is hardly anything
that children, especially the children of
the poor the waifs ana ragamuffins of
our great cities covet more than flow
ers. Tho gardener of ono of our city
squares reported to his superintendent
that the children of his neighborhood
had stolen ten thousand plants from his
beds while his back was turned, during
the short time he had been in charge,
and never is one of those waifs, boy or
girl, so happy as with even a dandelion
or s butter-oup -notning better oner

Bean Hickman
A correspondent of the Chicago Tri
bune tells this story about tho late
Beau Hickman, whion has never before
appeared in print:
On ono occasion, Beau being on a
train without a ticket, he took a seat in
tho cars, and after the train nau ueen in
motion some time, stepped into tho
next car and called out loudly, "Tick
ets 1" when every one, thinking him
tho conductor, held out their tickets.
Beau only took up one, however, se
lecting that of a poor, honest old Ger
man farmer, and, passing into the next
car, took a seat, sticking his ticket in
the band of his hat.
In a few minutes there was the usual
call again of " Tickets 1" and the real
conductor made his appearance. When
he came to the old Uerman larmer, he
attempted to explain, but the conduc
tor cut him short, saying, " Show your
ticket, pay your 'money, or get on tne
train." A good many passengers who
had witnessed the transaction between
Hickman and the farmer, and wondered
at tho time why their tickets had not
been called for. now came to the relief
of the German, aud remonstrated, pro
testing that the man had paid, and the
conductor who had just passed through
had already taken up his ticket. Tne
conductor,' thinking for a moment,
said, " I'll bet Beau Hickman is on this
train; and, sure enongn, on emenug
the next car, there sat Beau, as large an
life, looking quite innocent, and his
ticket exposed in f ull view.
"Where did you get this ticket?"
asked the conductor, pulling it out -of
Hickman's hat: band.
"lt was Riven me by a gentleman in
the next car," frankly replied Beau.
" I ou ought to be ashamed to rob
a poor old Uerinan larmer in that
way."
"Politest and cleverest people in the
world on your rad," said Beau, with
his inimitable smile and little bow.
Why. would you believe me,' sir ? I
only need one, but every man in the
car, when they knew who 1 was, ten
dered mo his ticket; and the ladies
God bless them ! at least a dozen
offered me theirs." The conductor
passed him.
A Tuzzlc.
A couple of scientific Frenchmen (of
course !) havo been posing themselves
and each other with the question as to
where a man who, traveling west from
any place at the rate of a thousand miles
an hour, would find Monday pass into
Tuesday. If he started at noon on
Monday the sun would always be in the
meridian; because ho would journey
with equal rapidity with the earth's
motion, and the sun would, therefore,
be at rest so far as he would be con
cerned. It would, therefore, be always
Monday noon to him, but when he com
pleted his journey it would be Tuesday
noon. These unhappy individuals can
not find out where Monday night occurs

Can it m Trttk ! Within tho last
few months a considerable number of
persons have called upon Dr. Walker,
tho proprietor of tho popular medicine
known ns Vinegar Bitters, and as
sured him that, in their belief, his
preparation is an infallible antidote for
rum and tobacco. Tho minute details
which have been furnished him forbid
him to doubt tho accuracy of the state
ments. This new claim of a great rem
edy to the confidence of the public will
give a vast and well-deserved impulse
to its popularity. Heretofore the Bit
ters have been recognized as a pure
vegetable tonio and corrective, devoid
of alcohol, and thoroughly adapted to
the cure of stomach and bowel com
plaints, nervous disorders, bilious af
fections, muscular diseases, and, in
deed, a majority of the ailments within
the reach of medicine ; but if it will
also cure the craving for liquor and to
bacco, philosophers, statesmen and the
ologians ought to unite their voices in
its praise. Can the good news be true ?

visitress does not bring her work with
her, without which the visited would be
obliged to remain idle, which is neither
more nor less than a sin."

Halt Alive
It is a sad thing to pa tlirctgh life only half
alive. Yet there are thcusaucs whoso habitual
condition is one of languor and debility. They
complain f no specific discBse; tuey suffer no
positive pain, but they have no relic.- 'r anything
hich affords mental or sensuous pleasure to their
more robust and energetic fellow beings.
In nine cases out often this state of lassitude
and torpor arises from a morbid stomach. Indi
gestion destroys the energy of both mind and body.
When the waste of nature is not supplied by a due
andrt'gular assimilation rf the food, every ergau
is starved, every function interrupted.
Now, what does common sense suggest under
these circumstances of depression? The system
needs rousing and strengthening; not merely for
an hour or two, to sink afterwards Into a more pi'.i-
nblo condition than ever (ns it assuredly would do
if an ordinary nlcohollo stimulant were resortod
